CHA_UK are established and developed with the needs of creatives and crafters in mind. If you are struggling with getting your products to market and want to meet successful crafting businesses and learn new strategies to grow your creative or craft business, CHA-UK events must not be
missed. A weekend attending their annual event and connecting with the right person or organization can catapult your business very quickly”

Being a member of the CHA-UK has allowed me to grow so much as an independent designer. I have a new found confidence, that I havn't seen in myself since having my family and prolonged career break. Meeting and building relationships with industry experts and other like minded people at the Creative Exchanges weekend has been invaluable to me. I am really proud of how I have seized the chance to create career opportunities through the CHA-UK. My email inbox has never been busier with interesting and exciting conversations.
So if you are looking to progress with a career in the crafting industry, the CHA-UK can definately open up any opportunity you are looking for

I joined the CHA-UK to enhance my reputation as a business within the craft industry and to draw on the help and experience of the members within the association!

Wendy Perry – Intricut Crafts - Buyer Membership

When you are running a business, it is important to be immersed in that world. As the owner of a craft business I count the CHA-UK as a necessary ingredient so that I can know what is happening and connect when I want to, with other professionals. Plus we got some fab discounts at the Stitches show which went a long way to paying the membership fee! Good plan CHA-UK.

There are a number of important reasons why Visage Textiles Ltd decided to join the CHA-UK. From a purely commercial point of view, we consider that our profile and credibility as a manufacturer and distributor is enhanced by being a member of a trade organisation. Our company wants to engage with designers and potential customers and we can do these things through the CHA-UK. Membership has brought further benefits such as access to industry-specific market research and access to international trade shows as a visitor and exhibitor.

Dani Phillips – Visage Textiles - Supplier Member

I have been a member of the CHA-UK since the beginning. I can honestly say that I have had more than my monies worth. Every time I have either emailed or rung Craig he has got back to me with an answer to my questions. If he didn’t know the answer at the time he came back to me later. I have also been to all the seminars. Very informative. These included networking, education and product workshops. Would recommend to everyone.

Kay Rutter – Hougie Crafts Ltd - Supplier Member

OMG had it not been for the CHA-UK I would never have found the supplier I spent hours on the internet looking for. One quick phone call would have sufficed!! Next time I will go straight to them for info on any supplier of crafts. Craig who dealt with my enquiry was a star! Thank you CHA-UK for existing, you could have saved me hours!
